Code: (Select All)
For i = 1 To 10 MySquareRoot! = Sqr(i) Print i, MySquareRoot!, MySquareRoot! Mod 1, _IIf((MySquareRoot! Mod 1 = 0), "Integer", "Not Integer") Next
looks like mod 1 = 0 for everything!

I give the testing of a number as an integer with Mod 1, a mod 1 rating.

From Wiki:

Quote:What is mod 1 in math?
The range of values for an integer modulo operation of n is 0 to n − 1. a mod 1 is always 0. When exactly one of a or n is negative, the basic definition breaks down, and programming languages differ in how these values are defined.

I probably shoulda not even mentioned MOD, that wasn't going to work!

LOL a mod 1 rating.

I'll give that an admin +1!

Code: (Select All)

bottom = 1: top = 11

For i = bottom To top

    Print top; "mod"; i; " = "; top Mod i

Next

Makes a nice pattern, because 11 is a prime number. I mean I get it, every number divided by itself, which is mod 1, has no remainder.

I was almost tempted to post: If num mod(Int(num)) = 0 The Print "Integer" ' Of course that fails if num = 0.

This reminds me of that thread a few years back by Chris Whistlehole. Sorry, I'm bad with last names.

There's always that career option if the hand modeling doesn't pan out, but I hope you'd choose TV weatherman first. But why bothet? With a name like Chris Whistlehole, one could be the next Barry Manilow, Justin Timberlake or Shaun Cassidy... just saying

Don't worry, the effects only last up to 4-hours. If longer, Steve needs to get me to a physician.

Oh, you said di-rection. Sorry.
